Website meta tag verification
When on, site owners can verify ownership by placing a meta tag on their homepage.
Where to find it
Admin → Settings → Affiliation → Website meta tag verification
Setting key: aff.webmaster_verify_meta
Default: on
Exact tag shape (token from their webmaster UI):
<meta name="xfile-affiliate-verification" content="TOKEN">The app fetches https:// then http:// of the homepage looking for that tag.
If both meta and DNS verification are off, members cannot verify (admin may still have legacy paths).
Common problems
Verification fails
Tag on wrong page, cached HTML, or www vs apex mismatch. Place it exactly as shown in the member UI.
